2512 – Dual H-Bridge Motor Driver Shield For Arduino (A4990), 6–32V, 0.6A Per Channel

Description

This small shield is an easy economical way to control two small brushed DC motors with an Arduino or Arduinocompatible board. Its integrated A4990 dual motor driver operates from 6 V to 32 V and can deliver a continuous 0.65 A to each motor channel making it a great control option for lowcurrent motors that run on high voltages. The A4990 is configured to limit the peak motor current to about 0.9 A per channel and is protected against reversevoltage undervoltage overvoltage shortcircuit and overtemperature conditions.
This motor driver shield and its corresponding Arduino library make it easy to control a pair of bidirectional brushed DC motors with an Arduino or compatible board such as the AStar 32U4 Prime. The board features Allegro’s A4990 dual Hbridge motor driver IC which operates from 6 V to 32 V. It can deliver a continuous 0.65 A to each motor channel and the current control feature of the A4990 limits the peak motor current to about 0.9 A per channel with the onboard sense resistors making this shield well suited for lowcurrent highvoltage motors.
